Title: Best size gutter hose ?
Post by: wpclean on July 20, 2014, 10:34:48 pm

We have been using 5 metre hose for a while, but it is worn now so will be replacing, and thinking of getting 15 metre length as I am thinking it would be easier to move around the property without moving the vac all the time.
Anyone use the longer hose, and do you find it easier ?     Looking at this at the moment -

Any comments appreciated, thanks  ;D

I went the other way and shortened my hose,15 metres curls up all the time and storage is also a problem

Going to cut it down, and have a 10m, and a 5m section, and have a connector to join for the bigger jobs  ;D
